Going to be moving to the Portland/Vancouver area in a few weeks.<br />
<br />
Probably won't compete at this years SOR as I've yet to practice and won't have time to do so before the event.<br />
Might show up to watch and heckle though.<br />

It's been two years since I've been able to fish and it felt good!</div>
<div>
A wild 36" buck that was pretty damn bright. </div>
<div>
I've been get getting pulls and short hookups often but no solid hookups till last night. </div>
<div>
Got it in the same run as my first Clearwater steelhead and also my biggest steelhead landed so that run has given me lots of love. </div>
<div>
Prototype Burkie rod is a CANNON and has a great action to fight fish. </div>
<div>
My fishin skills are rusty, been farming strikes bad:( but now the stink is off and I can relax and fish happily with no stress. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'll post more pics when I get my computer fixed. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have some pics to post but my computer is FUBAR:(<br />
<br />
Had a great time a got to see many friends and meet a few people also.<br />
<br />
I'm happy to say I won the 15 and big cookie cast off!<br />
Ali likes when I bring home the big cookie.<br />
<br />
Weather was SUPER nice!<br />
NO wind when Simon and I did our demo.<br />
Usually it seems like I do my demos in hurricane winds.<br />
<br />
Yesterday was productive as I got a super secret squirrel rod to try out fishing next weekend.<br />
Looking forward to trying it out.<br />
<br />
I'll post more about it when I can.<br />
<br />
It was great to see then Red She'd family, the kids are sure growing up fast!<br />

It's almost time for the RED SHED clave!<br />
looking forward to seeing friends.<br />
<br />
I actually got a chance to go casting a few weeks back, felt GOOD!<br />
looking forward to some fishing.<br />

I'm am fortunate to say I was able to meet him and his brother.<br />
For as young as they are the made a very big difference in the world of Spey casting.<br />
Knut will be missed.<br />
My last conversation with him ended with him saying I'd probably never see him again, unfortunately he was right.<br />
Watching him cast at SOR while battling cancer and in great pain while still being competitive was awe inspiring.<br />
Goodbye my friend and RIP.<br />
<br />
I'm in Portland now at the Westmorland pond visiting friends and getting some much needed practice.<br />
It's perfect conditions here now!<br />
<br />
Some of the things I'm working on are my dreaded left single that really has hurt me at the last two SOR's.<br />
<br />
Making good progress with it by cleaning up my back cast and I've been doing a lot of overhead to get a better hand path and cleaner acceleration in the forward cast.<br />
<br />
Another task is getting my anchors and D loop in a better position and with better consistency especially on the left.<br />
<br />
I'm also working at getting a bit more energy in my left and right snake roll back casts.<br />

Feels good to get some practice in.

<br />
NOT happy with my SOR results and am motivated to rectify that!<br />
<br />
<br />
It was quite warm here but today is a bit cooler and very nice, gonna light up a stogie and do some overhead casting in a bit.<br />
<br />
Here is Ali and the blooming apple trees at my place.<br />

Very mellow SOR this year.<br />
Not happy with my results at all, can't say I had great conditions but more so the lack of practice really made things tough for me.<br />
<br />
I have a bunch of pics I'll post later.<br />
<br />
Big congrats to all the top finishers!<br />
<br />
Sitting out on Sunday SUCKS!!!<br />
<br />
Big thanks to the Nextcast team for the support.<br />

I HURT!</div>
<div>
It's great to see everybody though. </div>
<div>
Ate some prime rib last night that was INSANE!</div>

Lots of competitors now so practice is limited for the rest of the week. </div>

My job sit for the last two months was in eye shot of my casting spot.<br />
Unfortunately the dam below me is cracked and they dropped the river 20+feet.<br />
My castingspot is sand dunes now! <br />
Pretty much no practice this year between that and my work schedule.<br />
<br />
Wish me luck.<br />
<br />
Kush and Gene said they'd beat me up if I didn't bring cigars so I brought extra.<br />

slight headwind but not bad conditions overall.<br />
It was good to cast and hang out with the crew.<br />
<br />
The new Comp line from Nextcast is the best yet, nice work Simon.<br />

Have not been able to get out and cast or fish lately.<br />
Hope to be able to fish more this fall than last year..<br />
<br />
I'm really looking forward to the Red Shed clave this year.<br />
<br />
Soft fruits are in season now here so I've been pigging out on cherries, apricots, strawberries and blueberries.<br />

Loc Vetter sent me a pic of the Team line test I talked about.<br />
Thanks Loc!<br />
<br />
I just got done with a short practice and was able to get out a few times last week..<br />
Work has been tough and my back is toast so for the last few practices I've been taking it easy and just focusing on timing, form and getting things lined up nice.<br />
<br />
Sandy is this weekend, see you there.<br />

Some thoughts on competition lines.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There is a lot involved in designing a line.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Loop timing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
loop speeds.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Rod loading.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Mass orientation.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Density.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Release from water and many other traits.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You can have a line with great feel but touchy loop stability or lazy shooting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A line that feels dead that shoots like a bullet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A line that feels heavy at the start of the forward cast and and light at the stop.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Heavy lines feeling light and vice versa.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Turns over too fast or too slow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lines that are forgiving of technique or VERY demanding.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sticky, jumpy, lazy, sluggish, floppy, skittish and my favorite "OOOOOH! THAT"S NICE!" are often heard comments from casters.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What do I like?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A line that requires just a bit of tuning.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My early creations were a LOT of work.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Some were pretty damn good but took massive amounts of labor and MOUNTAINS of various parts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Simon Gawesworth called my lines Calico lines!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The biggest problems I had were matching densities and line stock and I have boxes of line stock.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I feel spoiled now!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Just a few minor adjustments and your good to go.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Line traits.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I like some feel but I try to listen to what the rod is telling me more than what the line resistance is saying.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Stability? Yea I want lots of that.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I don't like lines that are more than moderately sticky.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The rods I like now make mince meat of lines that bogged my old rods.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I do like a balanced loading feel, Momma bear, some weight but not so much as to feel sluggish.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At this years SOR the Next cast team members got together for a line POW WOW.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All of us are a bit different types of casters.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Put a test line on a rod and we all cast it and give input.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The BIG CHEESE(Simon "The Snip") would perform line VOODOO.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anchors like a rock.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
SNIP and GLUE!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Yea or nae.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
SNIP and GLUE!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A hitch or bobble?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
SNIP and GLUE!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
sluggish or light?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
SNIP and GLUE!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It's truly wondrous to watch.</div>

My normal spot is very good for casing, minimal currents and a decent bottom, but today there was a constant strong headwind of the cliffs and a 8+inch chop, NOT GOOD.<br />
So I went upriver to Wenatchee on the Columbia, there is a good bottom but a strong current, at least the water was smooth.<br />
<br />
Casting was good, my left single is coming along nicely and the other 3 casts are strong.<br />
<br />
Big Tuna dropped by and we worked on his Snake roll a bit.<br />
He's getting pretty damned good with it.<br />
